In the region, manual alarm systems have been installed at more than 700 facilities where alcoholic products are sold. From discussion to implementation, at a hardware meeting chaired by Governor Ivan Krupko, the prospects for regional development were considered. Statistics on the commission of offenses in stores indicate that the measures taken to ensure security are yielding positive results. Since the beginning of the year, law enforcement agencies have made over 6,000 visits to such facilities, prevented more than 2,900 administrative offenses, and initiated over 70 criminal cases. "Equipping commercial facilities with alarm systems, panic buttons, and video surveillance is a matter of safety for people, customers, and sellers. All facility owners must understand this and take security measures," Ivan Krupko summarized.
